But thankfully, when I spoke to Kate, from West Butterwick, my fears were put to rest and I was relieved to realise that I was in fact not the only person to have these worries.

Mum-of-two Kate, 27, started her book when she was 25 and had just been sacked from her job.

"I just felt like I had messed up and that I was too old to start again," she said.

"Social media was making everyone else's lives seem perfect and I had this overall feeling that I wasn't good enough - but then I spoke to people and realised that everyone feels that way.

Kate's book

"I was down for a while but then I just thought I would speak to people and they told me that they felt the same.

"The book is about two friends who are friends for the sake of it and if they can handle it when they go their separate ways.

"It's also about feeling that you are enough. No one is going to put on social media that they have just done the washing up and it can get a bit much if you're looking at it all the time. It grinds you down after a while.

"I had always wanted to write but had written off the idea and decided that it was never going to happen.

"But when I got fired I had nothing to do but write.

"It was a surreal moment to be told it was going to be published - like it was a practical joke or something and that everyone on social media would laugh at me."

Kate finished her book in around three months and said realised she "always had the story inside."
